Meet Santa Claus, Aid Local Fire Department

Donations to Allamuchy Fire Department bring personal visits from the North Pole's most popular resident.

For the first time, Allamuchy Firefighters have arranged for Santa Claus to make home visits for the residents of Allamuchy.

This will become a great holiday tradition–a time to invite a few family and friends over to enjoy seeing Santa arrive on a fire truck. Children will have the opportunity to sit on Santa’s lap for photos, make their gift requests, and even receive a gift from Santa himself–a gift that’s on their actual list!

Visits from Santa and his helpers will last approximately 15 minutes, according to Allamuchy Fire Department member James Bessemer. A donation of at least $25 is requested per child. Visits are scheduled between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. from Monday, Dec. 17 through Thursday, Dec. 20. Reservations are required and time slots will fill up fast. Deadline is December 12.
